According to the HuffPo, "Will Ferrell is focusing his brand of goofy humor and satire on a truly deserving target: the wrecked economy, and those who did the wrecking... Ferrell will take on the hedge fund industry in a new comedy, 'Swear To God.'"

The screenplay will be authored by the writers from "Due Date" and "King of the Hill" and "it's a buddy comedy in which Ferrell plays a narcissistic hedge fund manager who thinks he has seen God," Deadline reported.
